Fallout 3 Game Add-Ons (DLC) Hints
Steelyard
1 of 25: Return to the Steelyard, and have your auto axe (or whatever weapon) ready to kill trogs with.
2 of 25: Get back onto the tops of the train cars you were on before, then move over to where you can jump from one of them into a big trash bin. It's a difficult jump, so quicksave before trying it. Once you make it, grab the *3 STEEL INGOTS* that are in the bin, then drop down to the ground.
3 of 25: Unlock the nearby fence gate for some XP if you want, then look near it for the door to the Supply Plant area. Since you're there, you might as well do that area now. (See the Supply Plant area's tips.)
4 of 25: Go to the right after exiting the Supply Plant to find a series of four protectrons in cases that you can liberate using the nearby terminal (if your Science skill is at least 75). On past that are several trogs clustered around a dead Pitt slave. Kill them off, then get the *2 STEEL INGOTS* that are next to the slave.
5 of 25: Go south all the way back to the stairs near the dumpsters and trash bins, and climb up them again. This time, go straight forward past the board plank to get onto some broken-down fencing. Turn right and look in the small alley of barrels for *2 STEEL INGOTS* on the ground, then go back the other way to find a fence gate.
6 of 25: To the right of the gate are some steps leading up into a metal structure. Investigate it before going through the gate to find shelves with *2 STEEL INGOTS* and some other useful items on them.
7 of 25: Past the gate, go forward to a large trash bin, then turn left and go all the way down to where a dead Pitt raider is lying next to a sewer pipe. Raid him and his ammo boxes for goods, then get the assault rifle and *3 STEEL INGOTS* lying next to him.
8 of 25: Another set of *3 STEEL INGOTS* can be found among the four radioactive barrel clusters to the north. Specifically, they're on the south side of the third barrel cluster.
9 of 25: Return to the dead Pitt raider, then go west until you find an open fence gate on your right. Go past it and turn left to find a trog or two, a first aid box, and *2 STEEL INGOTS* near the base of some stairs.
10 of 25: Climb up the stairs to get onto a metal roof, then go west along it until you can jump into a big trash bin and claim another *2 STEEL INGOTS*.
11 of 25: Drop back down to the ground, then go up the stairs that are to the east to get back onto the same roof. Move along the roof until you can use a board ramp to get onto a large, fallen radio-tower like thing. Look for *2 STEEL INGOTS* on some boards about halfway across it.
12 of 25: Finish crossing, then go down the stairs that the dead Pitt slave is at the top of. Look behind the stack of tires that's behind the stairs to find another *2 STEEL INGOTS*.
13 of 25: Go back up the stairs and get onto the metal roofing, then turn left and go around to where you can drop down onto a board that has *2 STEEL INGOTS* on it. Drop down to the ground from there, then check the shelves under the board for another *2 STEEL INGOTS*.
14 of 25: Go NW from those shelves to find an alley. Move down it until it splits, then turn left. Finish off the wildmen and trogs in the open area you come to, then look inside the ore cart to find *4 STEEL INGOTS* and some containers to raid.
15 of 25: Go to the NE corner of the open area, then head east as far as you can. Turn right and go to the end of the passage to find a dead Pitt slave with *2 STEEL INGOTS*, a combat shotgun, and three boxes of shotgun shells next to him.
16 of 25: Go all the way back around to the stairs with the stack of tires underneath them, then go SW until you find some more stairs. Go up the first set to find a special body named Wild Bill next to *2 STEEL INGOTS*. Be sure to loot the body to get the unique Wild Bill's Sidearm gun, plus a note you can show to Milly after you return to the Downtown area.
17 of 25: Jump over the railing to the east of Wild Bill to land on the machine that's periodically spewing flame. Turn right and jump over the fence, then look nearby for a dead Pitt slave and *2 STEEL INGOTS*.
18 of 25: Return to Wild Bill's body, then go up the next set of stairs to find a wildman shack that you can raid for items, including *2 STEEL INGOTS*, after killing off the inhabitants. (Don't neglect to take the ramp up to the shack's roof, which has three more ammo boxes on it.)
19 of 25: Get onto the narrow walkway that leads off to the east, then follow it along until you come to some stairs that lead up to a rooftop. Stop short of those stairs and kill all nearby trogs, plus the wildman sniper who may or may not be on a walkway a ways to the west. After they're down, jump onto the huge pipe that's to the right as you face the stairs, then follow it along east until you come to a spot with a trog (maybe) and *2 STEEL INGOTS*.
20 of 25: Turn around and go back to where you can jump onto the walkway. Go up the stairs to the rooftop, then go west to reach the walkway where the wildman sniper may have been. Go up to the top of the stairs, then go south until you can turn right and go between a wall and a huge circular structure. In the NW corner of the area with four small dome-like things is a trog (maybe), two first aid boxes, and *4 STEEL INGOTS*.
21 of 25: Go through the broken-down fence to the south, and look around for a couple of wildmen to kill and loot. After that's done, start climbing the stairs that are on the side of the huge circular structure, watching for more wildmen on the way. When you reach the large platform-like area, look for a turret mounted over the large circular pit, plus several wildmen near you and on the structures above you. After they're all down, find the stairs that lead even farther up. (This place is *insanely* huge!)
22 of 25: When you finally reach the top walkway, you'll find two first aid boxes and *12 STEEL INGOTS*. What a climb! After getting those ingots, go back down to the highest area where the walkway forms a sort of platform. Go to the east side of that platform and drop carefully down to the start of a really long ramp-like thing. Run down to the bottom of the ramp, then turn left and drop onto the platform that has *7 STEEL INGOTS* on it.
23 of 25: Jump back onto the ramp, then run up its left or right edge to get back up to its top. Drop from there to the walkway platform below, then take the stairs that lead down until you reach their bottom, watching for trogs on the way.
24 of 25: From the bottom of the stairs, head south to the fence. After quicksaving in case you take a fatal fall, edge around the fence so that you can move up next to the large pipe that goes down to the roof you're trying to get to. Staying next to the pipe, face it and lean on the Forward key as you fall to the roof below. If you do it right, you won't take any damage at all. Drop from the roof to the metal walkway below, then go to its east end and turn right to find the final *4 STEEL INGOTS* and an auto axe next to a dead Pitt slave.
25 of 25: After you get them, jump over the walkway's railing to get onto a big pipe, then jump from it over the fence. You can then easily make your way back to Everett to turn in your steel ingots for rewards.
